I am afraid that if I land hard and hit the handlebar with my chin, the front brake hose will wrap around my neck and decapitate me.

Great info, thank you! This definitely helps relieve the range anxiety! I haven't been able to see the Plugshare and ChargePoint prices, but at Electrify America, at $0.43 per kWh (or $0.31 per kWh + $4/mo fee), the price of electricity is almost twice of what it would cost to fuel an ICE car...

Imagine how strong you would become if you decide to ride your single track with the second battery on your back!

Are you going to hide the trailer in the bushes while riding your secret singe track? If you do not have experience with making connectors, then making high-voltage and low-mileage extension cables and connectors would be a PITA. But you don't have to make them. You can disconnect the original...

I recently switched my daily auto read from a yellow-journalism Jalopnik to Electrek. Lots of interesting stuff to read there! I saw that article on Electrek a few days ago. The reader comments were that a new Chevy Bolt-based crate EV motor kit would probably cost more than a used Bolt EV. Has...

Steve and I were talking about lowering one of my Altas for my girlfriend. I measured that the SM wheels alone would create a 1.5" drop. Then lower the seat and the suspension, and maybe then we could enjoy some trail riding together.

(y) This one will sell quickly!

The video now works, thank you! I should be in Havasu on the morning of the 23rd.

Hey Don! I will be in Havasu in 1 month. Hoping to check out your conversion. And you could benchmark my Altas all winter long at 928MX or at Western Raceway! Yamaha should be a great platform for a motocross e-bike. Stable and not twitchy, strong enough to handle the extra weigh of the motor...

This reminds me of riding a stock MX on a motocross track. I had to land it from jumps rear wheel first and on the throttle in order not to hit the ground with my boots' heels!

I have an idea. You could buy a second display from @Rashid510 and mount it somewhere hidden away. If the original breaks, then plug the harness into the second display. This option used to cost $200. Not sure what it costs now.

What happened with Alta has nothing to do with their racing successes and failures. They probably wouldn't have embarked on the Erzberg trip if it wasn't for the promised funding from H-D. The rapid expansion from 3 dealers to 100, the drop in pricing, the withdrawal of the promised H-D funding...

The H-D HR people may not know that this is from their own site. I suspect nobody ever visits their site.

Have you applied to become an H-D designer?

Can't you make pretty much anything street-legal if you really want to?

Yeah, the consensus in the comments below the article is that this is a vaporware.

@snydes is our Moderator. @AndyB is a second Administrator. These two guys should be able to do anything this forum needs if I decide to live in a van off-grid.

Maybe he realized that even the cheapest battery technology still does not allow making a 6 kWh battery bank with a 240V inverter-charger, selling it for $1K, and also making a profit. Pick two! I have been trying to do this for about $3K using an old Tesla battery, but @bluefxstc says he does...

Wow! This is a unique find!

Sold!
